Great little get away!

Amazing and relaxing location. A little bit of a drive to see the more famous locations or pick up groceries, but can’t beat the relaxing backyard view of the lake. Host was extremely communicative.

Relaxing

Clean and well-equipped. Close to the water. Quiet. Great views of the bay from inside and out. Comfortable places to sit and read or watch the birds. We enjoyed the canoe and kayaks. Manageable drive to sites further north on the peninsula.

Great time in Door County

Wonderful home on Little Sturgeon Bay on the water. Abundant wildlife contact. Great water views and access to kayaking and canoeing. Host thought of everything to make the stay comfortable. Beautiful, well kept home. Just pack a bag for casual living and bring a fishing pole if you like. We had a great time! Looking forward to coming back.

This place is well worth the money it had everything you could need in a stay we were all set and actually didn’t have to use half of what we brought with us! The pictures don’t do it justice the view and house itself are fantastic and peaceful. If I could afford a year I’d stay as long as I could ! Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a getaway that’s not to far from Sturgeon Bay, and the host was so kind and helpful as well as accommodating beyond my wildest dreams! We plan to come back next summer and rent from her again

Wonderful stay!

The cabin is located right on the water - we were pleasantly surprised by the availability of outdoor seating, kayaks & life jackets, a fully stocked kitchen and two on-property fire pits. Kim was extremely responsive and helpful in answering our questions and making sure we were taken care of during our stay. It was a serene and fun time here.

Hidden at a dead end with other homes around but very quiet. Clean, welcoming touches, serene lake view and the communication was great with the host. The many geese arriving and departing was entertaining every day! We recommend this VRBO!
